Forget about the Brennan bashing! This article is a great explanation of the Deep State. It features an unelected former high government official claiming that Trump will be “brought down” by “America” in an attempt to rally to the defense of the fired McCabe.
The USA Today article spins the firing on politics. The article fails to mention that the FBI Office of Professional Responsibility had recommended the firing based on McCabe’s perjury in front of Congressional committees. Those were the cited charges. However, the IG report from Horowitz finds that McCabe was in the thick of the coverup of the Clinton email server and had held onto evidence of failures of national security just prior to the election in order to give Hillary political cover.
McCabe specifically was holding information about DOJ emails found on Anthony Weiner’s laptop. Things that were leaked to the press forced McCabe’s hand and he released the information in October of 2016. This, in turn, forced Comey to release a statement in that month just prior to the election.
BTW: McCabe is now claiming that President Trump asked him point blank how he had voted in the Presidential election. McCabe is trying to spin this as Trump being “political”. However, President Trump, fully knowing what had transpired, needed to be able to point out that the release of the information and the subsequent statement by Comey, while it may have benefited his campaign, was instigated by circumstances and executed by supporters of Hillary.
So, we have an article here which tries to paint the firing as “political”. But note that the article does not mention the actual infractions of McCabe, the finding by the FBI OPR recommending the firing, or the information divulged from the DOJ Inspector General (IG), Michael Horowitz, (an Obama appointee, I might add) whose findings resulted in McCabe stepping away from his post at the FBI earlier this year so that he could wait it out for his full retirement next week.
In one article, we have Deep State personified by former CIA director Brennan hurling threats at the President of the United States and the USA Today press covering for Brennan, McCabe, and Comey.
This USA Today article and the information it DOESN’T include should give any thinking person enough information to realize that maybe, just maybe, Deep State isn’t a mythical beast at all!
